6 awstats_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the awstats pro‐
7 cesses
8
10 Security-Enhanced Linux secures the awstats processes via flexible
11 mandatory access control.
12 The awstats processes execute with the awstats_t SELinux type. You can
14 check if you have these processes running by executing the ps command
15 with the -Z qualifier.
16 For example:
18 ps -eZ | grep awstats_t
20
24 The awstats_t SELinux type can be entered via the awstats_exec_t file
25 type.
26 The default entrypoint paths for the awstats_t domain are the follow‐
28 ing:
29 /usr/share/awstats/tools/.+.pl
31
33 SELinux defines process types (domains) for each process running on the
34 system
35 You can see the context of a process using the -Z option to ps
37 Policy governs the access confined processes have to files. SELinux
39 awstats policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their awstats
40 processes in as secure a method as possible.
41 The following process types are defined for awstats:
43 awstats_t
45 Note: semanage permissive -a awstats_t can be used to make the process
47 type awstats_t permissive. SELinux does not deny access to permissive
48 process types, but the AVC (SELinux denials) messages are still gener‐
49 ated.
50
53 SELinux policy is customizable based on least access required. awstats
54 policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that allow you to
55 manipulate the policy and run awstats with the tightest access possi‐
56 ble.
57 If you want to determine whether awstats can purge httpd log files, you
61 must turn on the awstats_purge_apache_log_files boolean. Disabled by
62 default.
63 setsebool -P awstats_purge_apache_log_files 1
65 If you want to allow all domains to use other domains file descriptors,
69 you must turn on the allow_domain_fd_use boolean. Enabled by default.
70 setsebool -P allow_domain_fd_use 1
72 If you want to allow sysadm to debug or ptrace all processes, you must
76 turn on the allow_ptrace boolean. Disabled by default.
77 setsebool -P allow_ptrace 1
79 If you want to allow all domains to have the kernel load modules, you
83 must turn on the domain_kernel_load_modules boolean. Disabled by
84 default.
85 setsebool -P domain_kernel_load_modules 1
87 If you want to allow all domains to execute in fips_mode, you must turn
91 on the fips_mode boolean. Enabled by default.
92 setsebool -P fips_mode 1
94 If you want to enable reading of urandom for all domains, you must turn
98 on the global_ssp boolean. Disabled by default.
99 setsebool -P global_ssp 1

105 The SELinux process type awstats_t can manage files labeled with the
106 following file types. The paths listed are the default paths for these
107 file types. Note the processes UID still need to have DAC permissions.
108 awstats_tmp_t
110 awstats_var_lib_t
113 /var/lib/awstats(/.*)?
115 initrc_tmp_t
117 mnt_t
120 /mnt(/[^/]*)
122 /mnt(/[^/]*)?
123 /rhev(/[^/]*)?
124 /media(/[^/]*)
125 /media(/[^/]*)?
126 /etc/rhgb(/.*)?
127 /media/.hal-.*
128 /net
129 /afs
130 /rhev
131 /misc
132 tmp_t
134 /tmp
136 /usr/tmp
137 /var/tmp
138 /tmp-inst
139 /var/tmp-inst
140 /var/tmp/vi.recover

144 SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
145 type.
146 You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
148 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these files.
150 SELinux awstats policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their
151 awstats processes in as secure a method as possible.
152 STANDARD FILE CONTEXT
154 SELinux defines the file context types for the awstats, if you wanted
156 to store files with these types in a diffent paths, you need to execute
157 the semanage command to sepecify alternate labeling and then use
158 restorecon to put the labels on disk.
159 semanage fcontext -a -t awstats_var_lib_t '/srv/myawstats_con‐
161 tent(/.*)?'
162 restorecon -R -v /srv/myawstats_content
163 Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions to specify labels that
165 match multiple files.
166 The following file types are defined for awstats:
168 awstats_exec_t
172 - Set files with the awstats_exec_t type, if you want to transition an
174 executable to the awstats_t domain.
175 awstats_tmp_t
179 - Set files with the awstats_tmp_t type, if you want to store awstats
181 temporary files in the /tmp directories.
182 awstats_var_lib_t
186 - Set files with the awstats_var_lib_t type, if you want to store the
188 awstats files under the /var/lib directory.
189 Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command.
193 If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
194 semanage fcontext command. This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
195 base. You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
196
199 semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default file context
200 mappings.
201 semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate whether or not a
203 process type is permissive.
204 semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
206 icy modules.
207 semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
209 system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
212 icy settings.
